TestFlight Beta Contract Missing – ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING

Adding our report of the same TestFlight submission error.

Apple Developer Support case: 103001365191

An external TestFlight beta-review submission returned HTTP 422 with this exact error:

Code: ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING
Title: Beta contract is missing for the app.
Detail: Beta Contract is missing.

Both the Free Apps Agreement and the Paid Apps Agreement show Active in App Store Connect. We have added the diagnostic response to our existing support case.

Could Apple please investigate which beta contract is reported missing and fix the contract validation or provisioning for our app/account, including reattaching or re-provisioning the contract if needed? Please link the investigation to case 103001365191 and let us know whether any action is required on our side.

Thank you.

We have the same problem since 17 October 2026. Internal builds 8–13 are VALID and "In Beta Testing", and I am an accepted internal tester, but the TestFlight app says "The requested app is not available or doesn't exist." Submitting a build for external beta review first returned ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING; today (29 Oct) it returns "Please try again later." in both App Store Connect and the API.
The Free Apps agreement is active, and builds are made with the release version of Xcode 27.0 (27A266a). Our support case 102999995151 has had no reply in two weeks. Could you please restore our beta contract or escalate the case to the TestFlight team? Thank you.

I’m experiencing this too across multiple apps. Older builds suddenly expired together on the same day. New builds upload successfully, but internal testers get “The requested app is not available or doesn't exist.” External beta review submission fails with HTTP 422 — ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE: “Please try again later.”

Apple Support case: 103016852963. Could someone from Apple please investigate?

Same issue on our team. All apps are affected: TestFlight installs fail with HTTP 404 "Error Downloading Install Data", and external submission returns 422 ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE "Please try again later." Builds are VALID and IN_BETA_TESTING, the Free Apps Agreement is Active.

Case ID: 103012518088. Only automatic replies since October 29.

Could someone from Apple please check whether the Beta Contract is missing for our team, re-provision it if so, or escalate the case to the TestFlight team?

@DTS Engineer — I am experiencing the exact same detached team-level Beta Contract issue (HTTP 422 ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE.BETA_CONTRACT_MISSING on POST /v1/betaAppReviewSubmissions, and internal TestFlight builds cannot be installed despite processingState: VALID and internalBuildState: IN_BETA_TESTING).
All agreements (Free Apps, Paid Apps, Banking, W-8BEN Tax Forms, DSA) are Active in App Store Connect.

  Could you please escalate or re-provision/reattach the TestFlight Beta Contract on the backend for Team ZEA25MVE67? Thank you!

Same issue here, on an Individual Apple Developer Program membership enrolled at the end of October 2026.

• Every external Beta App Review submission returns HTTP 422 ENTITY_UNPROCESSABLE ("Please try again later.") on POST /v1/betaAppReviewSubmissions. Build 61 has failed since 4 November, and a brand-new build 62 uploaded on 6 November fails in exactly the same way. Last attempt: 9 November.
• Both builds are VALID and APP_STORE_ELIGIBLE, with export compliance answered.
• My three internal testers, all App Store Connect team members, stay in "Invited" and have never received a TestFlight invitation email, even after Reinvite.
• Test Information, privacy policy URL, age rating, content rights declaration and the Free Apps agreement are all complete and active.

Since a new build fails the same way, this is clearly the same missing or detached team-level Beta Contract problem reported above by many other developers in the last few weeks, not something we can fix on our side.

We have not been able to use TestFlight at all since the account was created. Could someone from Apple please re-provision the Beta Contract for Team Y64NP45872 and escalate case 30000005135336 to the TestFlight team? Thank you.

Same issue here on an Individual membership enrolled on November 3, 2026. Adding our details in case it helps Apple correlate the reports.

What happened:

On November 7, 2026 at 13:14:38 UTC, every TestFlight build on the account (5 builds across the 3 apps, uploaded November 3 to 6) was marked Expired at the exact same second. Nobody on the team expired them. Two of them had passed Beta App Review on November 3 and 6, and one was installed by an external tester.

New builds uploaded on November 9 process fine (VALID, READY_FOR_BETA_SUBMISSION), but POST /iris/v1/betaAppReviewSubmissions returns HTTP 422 ("Please try again later."), and our two internal testers, both App Store Connect users, stay in "Invited" and never receive the TestFlight invitation email, even after resending it.

Account status: membership active (renews November 4, 2027), Program License Agreement accepted November 3, Free Apps Agreement Active (November 3, 2026 to November 3, 2027), no pending agreements, Test Information complete, export compliance answered.

TestFlight worked normally from November 3 to November 6, so this looks like the same team-level Beta Contract record being dropped on the backend, as described above.

Could someone at Apple please check the Beta Contract record for Team KBPX3C79AT and re-provision it, or escalate case 30000009832393 to the TestFlight team? Thank you.
